Theft prevention tips when touring SA?
Hey everyone, hope you're keeping well and riding safe!
In 3 weeks time I'll be flying to Bogota, where, I'm excited to say, I'll be starting a trip through South America. I'm going to buy from a dealership in Bogota, and I'm currently looking at the AKT TTR 200 for around $1000.
I was wondering if people could share their strategies or tips for theft prevention when touring.
I'll be staying predominantly in hostels, so it's inevitable that I'll be leaving it out on the street some nights. I have two lightweight disc locks that I am thinking of bringing. To save weight, I'm reluctant to invest in a chain. The nature of the bike - being light, cheap and common - means it shouldn't attract too much attention.
Of course, no prevention is 100% secure, but do people think this will be sufficient? And what tips do people have when it comes to secure parking?
Many thanks  )
